But when it comes to designs with serializers and deserializers, you first have to choose an architecture. In implementing a design with a serializer and/or deserializer, you have 3 architectural choices at your disposal: Gennum's complete transmitter/receiver solution architecture, an integrated-transceiver FPGA architecture and an FPGA-helper architecture. Let's explore these three options with an assessment of the following key parameters: jitter, power consumption, integration (component/features), time-to-market, system size and cost. Gennum's complete solution architec ture Leveraging its expertise in signal integrity and deep understanding of broadcast video technologies, Gennum's offering encapsulates all the analog components (SerDes, VCO, CD, EQ, Reclocker) as well as the digital SMPTE video and audio processing required to transmit and receive SDI video into one optimized, cost-effective and power efficient ASIC implementation that lets you focus on customer value-add processing for quicker time-to-market. All of this integration into one package reduces the system PCB footprint required to implement SDI transmit/receive, at no compromise to Gennum's superior jitter performance. Only Gennum offers a solution that scores high for each evaluation parameter. Gennum: Complete Solution Transmitter/Receiver Low-End FPGA Spartan 3A, Cyclone III Complete SDI Input EQ+Receiver EQ 11 Receiver EQ Proprietary Customer Logic Complete 11 SDI Output Transmitter w/CD inteGr ated -tr ansceiver fpGa architec ture Integrated-transceiver FPGAs typically offer the worst specifications in terms of jitter. Maximum output jitter and input jitter tolerance (IJT) are typically at the limit of the SMPTE standards, and, in some cases, actually in violation of industry norms. That is why extra components, namely a VCXO and reclockers, are required to get the system jitter performance to an acceptable level, but at the penalty of higher power consumption, system footprint size and cost. Because of all the fine tuning required to get this architecture to work, and because of the IP licensing/development required for the digital SMPTE video processing, this architecture unnecessarily prolongs time-to-market. Finally, while FPGAs integrate transceivers, they do not integrate routing components like cable drivers and equalizers. Integrated Transceiver FPGAs High-End FPGA Virtex 5,Stratix II GX EQ 11 Reclocker Proprietary Customer Logic Digital SMPTE processing Transmitter SDI Input Receiver VCXO SDI Output CD Gennum Fall 2009 Product Guide * Broadcast Video fpGa-helper architec ture The FPGA-helper architecture, as depicted below, involves the use of a component that includes the physical media attachment part of a SMPTE receiver/transmitter, with the digital SMPTE processing implemented in the FPGA. The result is an architecture that is taxing in terms of power consumption and that FPGA-helper parts are lacking, in terms of feature offering. In many cases, customer code already requires high utilization factors in small, low-cost FPGAs and the added requirement of digital SMPTE video processing in the FPGA may drive adoption of a larger FPGA, creating further penalties in power consumption, size and system cost. And while this architecture fares well in system jitter performance in certain cases, the added engineering effort in developing (or licensing) and stitching that video processing logic with the customer code means a slower time-to-market. Finally, while some FPGA-helper parts integrate a cable driver, the offering lacks an integrated equalizer.

Unlike legacy bridge solutions (PCIe to PCI bridges), the GN4124 takes full advantage of the performance features of PCIe. Gullwing RDK Board The GN4124 is designed to work as a companion to FPGA devices to provide a complete bridging solution. The GN4124 contains a PCI Express compliant PHY and the link and transaction layers, and an applications interface. loc al bus interface Since the PCI Express transaction/link IP is hard-wired into the GN4124, there is no need to license PCIe IP. Using the GN4124 allows FPGA resources to be spent on what differentiates the product. The local bus interface uses dual data rate to accomplish up to 800MB/s of local bus peak throughput in each direction (1600MB/s total peak throughput). The local bus facilitates master mode and target mode read/write transactions. live on power-up firmware/soft ware The GN4124 devices are live on power-up so that a plug-andplay BIOS can auto-detect them without an attached FPGA having to be configured. The Gennum video capture solution includes FPGA firmware and driver software is provided at no extra cost when used with the GN4124. fpGa on-the-fly confiGur ation loader reference desiGn Kit avail able An FPGA configuration bitstream may be downloaded from the host system over PCIe to the attached FPGA. This eliminates the expense of a dedicated FPGA ROM and makes on-the-fly reconfiguration and firmware upgrades simple. Any application requiring dynamic reconfiguration can benefit from the use of the GN4124 as a companion device. A complete RDK for video capture is available. The RDK hardware for video capture consists of the Gullwing RDK board and works in conjunction with select Gennum SDI transmitter/receiver evaluation boards.

The GN1407 quad PCIe re-driver, and the GN1406 quad retiming re-driver, allow PCI Express to be extended across long cables to allow entire subsystems to be distributed throughout an equipment room and communicate via PCI Express. Ref Clock Inputs (4) I2C 4 sets EQ Buffered Ref Clock Outputs (4) CDR Digital Control pcie re-driver and retiminG re-driver GN1406 provide high-gain equalization (up to 24dB) for PCI Express for Gen1/Gen2 data rates to compensate for cable losses. Standard PCI Express cable may be used or lower cost alternatives such as CAT5/6. The GN1406 is unique in that it also provides retiming in order to achieve the longest cable lengths and address impairments such as crosstalk, source jitter, interpair skew, and reflections that cannot be compensated for by equalization alone. By resetting the jitter budget through retiming, the GN1406 provides the greatest robustness and lowest jitter solution available. Each of the 4 channels in the GN1406 includes independently adjustable equalization and de-emphasis. GN1407 Ref Clock Inputs (4) I2C 4 sets Buffered Ref Clock EQ Outputs (4) Digital Control GN1407 is similar to GN1406 by configuration, except that it does not have the retiming and de-emphasis features. Each of the four channels includes independently adjustable equalization settings up to 24dB. This solution is ideal to recover signal attenuation loss due to input trace or cable lengths, sitting close to the receiver point.
